Cannot use admin area

Post by jtnygren »

Without any reason phpwcms throws me out from admin area. I have not changed php codes and have tried to upload phpwcms again but nothing helps.

First everything works fine. I can log in and browse articles and templates but when I try to save modified article or css, phpwcms throws me out and directs me to login form. All modified data is lost. This happends even 30 sec after logging in and later. Sometimes it works fine and does not throw me out but in most cases it does.

I have tried phpwcms with newest iE and netscape and both browsers accepts cookies.

Before phpwcms worked fine. I run three different install in three different folder and subdomain. I have used phpwcms for 4 month. Now all have same problem even I have not touched three of them for month!

Could it have something to do with too early expiring cookies and daylight-saving time what started today in Finland? My server's and computer's clocks are correct and everything should work.

Thanks, Jaakko

Yep, same problem over here also! I'm using two separate installations of PHPWCMS and the problem persists in both of them. Also using finnish servers. Guess this might be a issue relating with daylight saving time...

It seems that reason was different times between SQL and Apache/PHP server and was solved by changing $phpwcms["max_time"] longer in include/inc_conf/conf.inc.php .

Have you already tried to augment your session life time to a unbelievably high value in conf.inc.php?

Code: Select all

$phpwcms["max_time"] = 1800
I can only say that we have daylight saving time in Germany, too (hooray!), and at least with my phpwcms, everything works fine.
